Option 1: Weed remover
Securing extension rod (with handle)
The extension rod (with handle) can only be attached to the weed burner in one way.
Position the arrow marks on the extension rod/handle directly opposite the open padlock
marks on the weed burner.
Press the extension rod firmly into the weed burner and turn the extension rod/handle to the
right until the arrow marks are directly opposite the closed padlock marks on the weed
burner.
Make sure that the extension rod clicks into the device properly. The device may only be
used as a weed burner with the extension rod. Hold the weed burner by the handle.
Initial use
Make sure that the extension rod/handle is secured properly and that the machine is
switched off.
Check to ensure that all of the relevant safety measures have been applied.
Secure the mouthpiece to treat the weeds.
Insert the plug into the socket.
Guide the electrical cable through the cable clamp (and the extension cable, if used) and
away to the back.
Check to ensure there is nothing in front of the mouthpiece before you switch the device on.
Set the temperature to setting II.
Let the device warm up for around 45 seconds.
To remove the weed, place the mouthpiece over the plant for around 5 seconds.
During this time, the cell structure of the weed will be destroyed. The weed will then die
within a few days.
It is not necessary to burn the weed, 5 seconds is all it takes to kill it.
For effective treatment, the mouthpiece must be placed 0-5 cm from the weed.
The effects are not immediately visible; it may take a few days before you can see the
difference. You are making a long-term difference.
If you are treating plants with hard leaves, you may have to repeat the process at intervals of
1 to 2 weeks.
